"Jon Artz is simply the Best DUI Lawyer in California" Roger Cossack, ESPN Legal Analyst
Los Angeles DUI Attorney Jon Artz has specialized in DUI Defense for 42 years, and been called the “Best DUI Lawyer in California” by ESPN Legal Analyst Roger Cossack. Jon has won thousands and thousands of CA DUI and DMV cases, and has authored creative DUI strategies (“Artz Motions”) that have become standard practice in CA DUI defense.
BIO: Jon Artz received both his B.S. in Economics (1968) and his J.D. in Law (1971) from UCLA. His legal prowess was immediately evident when, three years after getting his law degree, he secured an historic 7/0 reversal from the California Supreme Court in the very first interpretation of Penal Code 1192.5. Jon Artz is one of four Contributing Authors to "California Drunk Driving Law"--the "bible" of California DUI Law--and is popular lecturer on DUI Law and Drunk Driving Defense at the California DUI Lawyers Association (CDLA). Based in West L.A., Jon Artz has an unmatched success record for winning "unwinnable" DUI trials, and is known throughout the Southern California courts as California's pre-eminent DUI defense lawyer.
Jon has successfully defended over 3,000 DUI and criminal defense cases, with exceptional results. He is an editorial consultant for California Drunk Driving Law, a two-volume treatise by James Publishing, and has taught law as Adjunct Professor at Pepperdine University School of Law, and served as a Judge Pro Tem in Van Nuys, Malibu, and West Los Angeles. The highest compliment he receives is when judges and prosecutors refer their own friends and family members as clients, knowing he is an aggressive and skilled attorney who can work wonders regarding creative sentencing alternatives to avoid jail. Jon is also an avid paddle tennis player and competitor and a devoted family man who loves reading, travel, and body surfing.
